The class president was so excited!
He had mentioned that Ronan looked familiar, but couldn't recall where he had seen him.
Ahem, President Ronan had not been involved in any scandals for almost half a year, and he hadn't appeared in gossip magazines.
So, the class president finally recognized him.
The crowd was shaken, and those who didn't understand pulled aside those who did to get the details.
Heavens!
The president of ZenithVentures!
The head of an international conglomerate with assets in the billions!
And he looks so young and handsome!
He married their university classmate and is having a meal with them?
Calla looked at the devastated Benjamin Turner and Emily Thompson and said, mocking yet triumphant, "Mr. Ronan always dotes on his wife. How come it turns into being an incapable man when it comes to you two?"
Everyone expressed, "Lyra is so lucky!"
"Oh my God, am I dreaming? Can
Emily Thompson immediately got angry and said, "When did we say we won't pay? Bring the bill!" The manager gestured, and a waiter quickly brought the bill. While pulling out her card, Emily Thompson disdainfully said, "Just a few tens of thousands? I can't afford that!" The waiter brought the bill and said, "Your total expenditure is 3.21 million." "What!" Emily Thompson's legs went weak, almost causing her to fall. She snatched the bill and carefully examined it. Ronan, embracing Lyra, raised an eyebrow, "For the sake of Lyra's classmates, let's forget about the one thousand and just give 3.2 million!" "How is that possible!" Emily Thompson's hand, with painted red nails, trembled non-stop. The manager explained, "Two pounds of white truffles alone cost three million. The remaining two hundred thousand is for other dishes, drinks, and the private room fee." Benjamin Turner, wanting to slip away unnoticed, was caught by
Brandon Carter, although just an eighteen-tier minor celebrity, knew quite a few girls with dreams of becoming stars and wanting to rise to the top.As long as you pay, these girls are willing to do anything.He found several girls who looked somewhat similar to Lyra and brought them for Octavia Everly to choose from.In the end, Octavia Everly chose a girl named Mia Reynolds.Mia Reynolds, only twenty years old and in her junior year of college, had long, straight, jet-black hair just like Lyra's.With rosy lips, white teeth, and crystal-clear skin, her big, black, bright eyes resembled a clear spring, shrouded in a thin mist that made people easily captivated.At a glance, there was a certain charm reminiscent of Lyra.Brandon Carter proudly said, "How about this one? The most similar, right?"Octavia Everly nodded in satisfaction, "This one looks the most like her."She transferred one hundred thousand yuan to Mia Rey
The general manager secretly gritted his teeth. The general manager nudged Mia Reynolds beside him and gave her a stern look, "Mia, why don't you go and escort Mr. Ronan?" Mia Reynolds immediately understood and hastily said charmingly, "Mr. Ronan, let me accompany you out." Ronan didn't even spare her a glance, walking straight out with his assistant. At the entrance of the club, Ronan's driver went to fetch the car. Mia Reynolds subtly adjusted her jaw, and pushed out her chest, revealing the curves of her stunning figure. On her face, she wore a delicate and pitiful expression, like a helpless and adorable bird. "Mr. Ronan, I don't have a car. How about spending the night at your place?" Her voice, timid and full of pleading, sounded. Ronan smirked, "Sleep at my place? Where would my wife sleep then?" Mia Reynolds didn't expect him to reject her. Wasn't this man supposed to be the most unfaithful? Why did he bring up
Mia Reynolds came to the Imperial Garden early in the morning, claiming to discuss work. What a lame excuse.Mia Reynolds gazed at Ronan so infatuatedly; did she think Lyra was blind?Ronan calmly said, "Wife, you're mischievous again."Mia Reynolds proudly lifted her chin, "Miss Lyra, I'm here to discuss project matters with Mr. Ronan. Please respect my work, okay?"By intentionally saying "Miss Lyra" instead of "Mrs. Lyra," she clarified that she looked down on Lyra's status.Upon hearing this, Ronan immediately darkened his face, radiating a chilling aura."What kind of person are you? What qualifications do you have to discuss with me? Get lost!"Mia Reynolds felt bewildered and extremely wrong. Ronan scolded her and told her to leave.How could this be possible?Didn't he notice her beauty and impressive figure, far surpassing Lyra, who couldn't serve him due to pregnancy?"Mr. Ronan, I don't know what I did wrong. Why is Miss Lyra treating me like this? As a representative of th
Mia Reynolds whimpered and shivered, scared, she retreated, crying and running past Ronan.She ran as fast as she could, fearing that the homeless man might catch her.Lyra shook her head; Ronan was indeed such a despicable man.Sarcastic and sinister.She truly didn't understand what those women saw in him, one after another."Don't you think that Mia Reynolds looks a bit like me?" Lyra said softly.Ronan thought for a moment; indeed, there was a slight resemblance.If Lyra hadn't mentioned it, Ronan probably wouldn't have noticed.Lately, there had been quite a few women around him who had some resemblance to Lyra.Like Mia Reynolds, and a few women he encountered at social events, even including the recently signed newcomer in the company.They all had some shadow of Lyra in their appearance.He squinted his eyes; this matter didn't seem so simple!"What? Mia Reynolds failed?" Octavia Everly said in disbelief.Mia Reynolds was the one among all the people she found who resembled Ly
The man, pulling up his pants, walked out and, upon seeing Brandon Carter, laughed heartily, "Miss Everly is indeed a rare beauty! Why don't you go in and have some fun?""I spit on that!" Brandon Carter said with disdain. "I have no interest in someone others have played with. I only like genuinely innocent girls.""That's true!" the man laughed. "You, Brandon Carter, being a big star, can have any girl you want."Someone asked with concern, "I heard that Miss Everly, from the Everly family, married Ronan, the CEO of Zenith Ventures. Won't it cause trouble for us?""Don't worry!" Brandon Carter said carelessly. "Miss Everly from the Everly family doesn't even care about herself. As long as she still wants hallucinogens, isn't she at my mercy?"The crowd praised Brandon Carter again, flattering him.After everyone was satisfied, Brandon Carter stood up and walked into the nauseating-smelling room.As soon as he entered, he saw Octavia Everly lying naked on the bed, covered in bruises
"Lyra, you heartless person! The Everly family raised you, and now you don't even care about your sister's life and death! I'd rather die, Lyra, you damned person!""Lyra, you're unfilial. You'll be struck by divine punishment in the future!"Rowena Winters' scolding, like that of a shrew, attracted a lot of onlookers. Orion Everly felt utterly embarrassed.That disobedient Octavia Everly, actually taking hallucinogens and getting involved with five or six men...Unable to handle the situation, they had no choice but to seek Lyra's help, hoping that Ronan could assist.Rowena Winters, instead of pleading, continued to verbally attack Lyra.The security guards called the Emperor Hotel and explained the situation. After seeking approval from Zane the butler, they brought Orion Everly and Rowena Winters inside.Lyra sat on the sofa, expression indifferent. "I heard you were cursing me at the entrance?"Orion Everly awkwardly said, "It's not like that! We were just stopped by the security
Lyra looked at the handsome man in front of her with disbelief.Ronan's tone was as calm as if he were talking about the weather.Although Lyra didn't like Octavia Everly, was this not going too far?Ronan approached her slowly and said softly, "I didn't force her; it was all Octavia Everly's doing."Even though Lyra was not a saint, she and Octavia Everly were half-sisters, after all."Send her to rehab, and let's not pursue this any further," Lyra said, lifting her gaze.Ronan smirked, "Do you know what she did?""I don't want to know," Lyra said calmly. "Even if she did something wrong, this punishment is enough. Send her to rehab, spare her."Ronan looked at Lyra and saw disgust in her eyes.But she had no idea how poisonous Octavia Everly's heart was.First, she found a woman with a similar appearance and temperament to get close to him, attempting to seduce him.She even schemed to have Brandon Carter use the same method, using hallucinogens to control Lyra.Lyra did not know th
